INTRODUCTIONSEAMANSHIP
  • Welcome to the Auxiliary Operational Specialty
    course SEAMANSHIP or AUXSEA.
  • The term SEAMANSHIP literally encompasses the
    entire subject of boating.
  • This is one of seven (7) courses leading to the
    coveted AUXOP rating and award of the badge.

7
SEAMANSHIP
  • TEXTS STUDY GUIDES-REFERENCES
  • REFERENCE TEXT ANY VERSION OF CHAPMANS
    SEAMANSHIP.
  • STUDY THE SAME TOPIC IN THE STUDY GUIDE AND
  • IN CHAPMANS.
  • TEXT P16794.41 115 APR 1992 WITH PROPER CHANGES.
  • FINAL EXAMINATION BASED ON STUDY QUESTIONS AT END
    OF EACH CHAPTER IN STUDY GUIDE.
  • SEE INSTRUCTOR AND MENTOR FOR FURTHER GUIDANCE.

TERMINOLOGY AROUND A BOAT
  • BOW The most foward portion of the main hull
    (the pointy end).
  • FOWARD Towards (in the direction of) the Bow.
  • AHEAD Hull motion relative to the bow.
  • STERN Aftermost portion of the main hull the
    back end of the vessel (the BLUNT end),

9
TERMINOLOGY AROUND A BOAT
  • AFT In the direction of the stern towards the
    back end of the boat.
  • ASTERN Direction of hull motion relative to the
    stern backing motion relative to the bow.
  • SIDES Looking towards the bow, from the stern
    (on either side of the keel)
  • Side to your right is STARBOARD.
  • Side to your left is PORT.

10
TERMINOLOGY AROUND A BOAT
PLEASE NOTE There are NO right or left
sides on the water. There are only PORTs and
STARBOARDs. d. BEAM The widest point of the
hull, gunwale to gunwale. e. ATHWARTSHIP
Any measurement made from one side of the hull
to the other at 90 degrees to the keel.
11
TERMINOLOGY
  • TERMS DENOTING HULL SHAPE
  • SHEER The curve or sweep of the deck, from bow
    to stern, of a vessel when viewed from the side
  • FLARE The outward curvature of the sides of the
    boat near the bow (looking head-on), which helps
    to keep the vessels decks drier.

12
TERMINOLOGY
  • HULLS BOTTOM
  • FLAT Little or NO lateral curvature when viewed
    from either the bow or the stern.
  • ROUND When viewed from the bow or the stern, the
    sides show a definite roundness or curving
    down and inward from the deck towards the keel.

13
TERMINOLOGY
HULLS BOTTOM TYPE VEE When viewed from the
bow, the sides slope sharply towards the keel but
have a tendency to flare out shortly after the
bow and may continue do so up to the mid-point of
the hull. DEEP V Carries the sharp V style
much farther aft. SHALLOW or SEMI-V . V
shallows out very rapidly aft of the bow. NOTE
The deeper the V the softer the ride and the
greater the directional control especially at LOW
speeds.
14
TWO BASIC HULL TYPES
  • DISPLACEMENT
  • When loaded, sets low in the water. Flotation
    depends on the amount of water displaced by hull.
    Water displaced gt/ weight of the vessel. Usually
    slower vessel.
  • PLANING Sets on top of the water. Fast moving.
    Flotation does not depend as much on amount of
    water displaced by the hull. Load capabilities
    from dynamic actions with the hulls bottom and
    the water surface.

15
DISPLACEMENT HULLS
16
PLANING HULL
17
TWO BASIC CABIN STYLES
  • TRUNK Does not extend fully from gunwale to
    gunwale has walking space on both sides.
  • RAISED DECK Does extend all the way, from
    gunwale to gunwale NO walking space on either
    side.

18
OTHER BOATING TERMS
  • KEELSON A timber ( can also be of metal)
    fastened along the top of the keel, inside of the
    hull.
  • LIMBER HOLES Passages cut into the area next to
    the keel to allow water to properly flow to its
    lowest point, to be pumped out.
  • KING POST The spoke of a steering wheel that is
    vertical when the rudder is exactly centered
    along the keel.
  • THWART A transverse seat generally in a rowing
    craft.

19
OTHER BOATING TERMS
BOOTOP The general area of the exterior hull at
the waterline. THWART STANCHION A vertical
support (stanchion) for a transverse seat
(thwart).
20
OTHER BOATING TERMS
BOAT MOTIONS PITCH The UP and DOWN vertical
motion of the bow as the boat rotates around its
lateral axis. ROLL The gunwaleto - gunwale
motion of the hull as it rotates around its
longitudinal axis. YAW The swinging motion of
the bow from side to side, as the hull rotates
around its vertical axis.
21
DANGEROUS BOATING MOTIONS
BROACH Downhill fairly high speed. Bow sharply
digs under the surface. Floods or significantly
washes main decks. CAPSIZING Vessel rolls over
bottom up difficult or impossible
recovery. PITCHPOLING Commonly following a
BROACH and loss of directional control. Bow
plunges deep turns sharply to one side vessel
rolls and capsizes. Violent potentially lethal
maneuver.
22
SAILBOAT CONFIGURATION
  • IDENTIFICATION DEPENDS UPON THE NUMBER OF MASTS
    AND SAILS AND WHERE PLACED.
  • The graphics which follow are highly simplified
    examples.

28
SEAMANSHIP BOAT BUILDING MATERIALS
  • Five (5) materials considered
  • FIBERGLASS
  • WOOD
  • STEEL
  • ALUMINUM
  • FABRIC

29
FIBERGLASS
DEFINITION STRANDS OF GLASS, SATURATED WITH
RESIN and allowed TO PROPERLY DRY AND CURE
30
TYPES OF FIBERGLAS
CHOPPED STRANDS
31
FIBERGLASS
  • MOST POPULAR building material
  • REASON FOR PRIMARY CHOICE
  • EASE OF MAINTENANCE

32
TERMINOLOGY
A fiberglass hull is composed of matting, roving,
cloth and strands of fiberglass saturated with
plastic resin(s) very similar to
steel-reinforced concrete.
33
ADVANTAGES OF FIBERGLASS
  • IMPERVIOUS TO MARINE ANIMALS, WORMS / BORERS
    (NOT GROWTH.)
  • NO DRY ROT
  • FEW OR NO SEAMS / JOINTS
  • NO LEAKS FROM SEAMS / JOINTS
  • COLOR MOLDED IN
  • STRONG
  • MOLD INTO ALMOST ANY SHAPE
  • LOW MAINTENANCE

34
DISADVANTAGES OF FIBERGLASS
  • HEAVIER THAN WATER READILY SINKS
  • EASIER TO COVER UP SHODDY WORKMANSHIP

35
TWO KINDS OF RESINS
  • POLYESTER
  • VERSATILE
  • EASY TO WORK WITH/ HANDLE
  • INEXPENSIVE
  • 2. EPOXIES
  • STRONGER
  • MORE EXPENSIVE
  • MORE DIFFICULT TO WORK WITH.

36
RESIN ADDITIVES
  • Hardeners HARDEN THE RESIN
  • Driers CONTROL THE CURING TIME
  • Fire Suppressants MAKE THE RESIN FIRE RETARDANT
  • ALL RESINS EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE

37
MOLDS
MALE MOLD PLUG Exact size, shape of object to
mold FEMALE MOLD CAVITY MOLD USED FOR
HAND-LAYUP CHOPPED STRAND NOTE Gel Coat
applied first, to the inside of the female
mold. BLOWGUN PROCESS Fastest, smoothest results
38
MOLDS
MATCHED DIE MALE / FEMALE MOLDS CLAMPED

(SANDWICHED) BALSA WOOD FOAMED
PLASTICS PLYWOOD
39
WOOD
CONSIDERATION FOR USE 1. STRENGTH 2.
AVAILABILITY 3. WORKABILITY 4. WATER
ABSORPTION 5. LEAST NOISY
40
WOOD CONSTRUCTION
MORE DECAY RESISTANT HARD WOODS ASH,
MAHOGANY, TEAK, OAK LESS DECAY
RESISTANT SOFTER WOODS CEDAR, FIR, PINE
41
WOOD DISADVANTAGES
  • NUMBER ONE DRY ROT
  • HIGHLY SUCEPTIBLE TO WORMS, BORERS
  • ABSORBS WATER
  • EASILY DAMAGED

42
STEEL CONSTRUCTION
DISADVANTAGES 1. QUICK DETERIORATION 2.
CONSIDERABLE CONTINUOUS
MAINTENANCE
43
STEEL CONSTRUCTION
  • ADVANTAGES
  • STRONGEST STRENGTH TO WEIGHT RATIO
  • 2. STIFF \ RESISTANT TO
  • IMPACT FATIGUE - ABRASION
  • 3. LESS NOISY THAN ALL BUT WOOD

44
ALUMINUM CONSTRUCTION
ADVANTAGES 1. LIGHT WEIGHT 2.
IMPERVIOUS TO MARINE ANIMALS ( NOT GROWTH ) 3.
FAIRLY EASY TO FORM
45
ALUMINUM CONSTRUCTION
  • DISADVANTAGES
  • SUSCEPTIBLE TO ELECTROLYSIS
  • HEAT CONDUCTOR
  • 3. NOISY
  • 4. EASY TO DAMAGE

46
STEERING SYSTEMSTILLER
A SIMPLE RUDDER POST WITH A HANDLE ON TOP OF IT,
BY WHICH TO STEER. The most simple of all
steering systems
47
THE SIMPLE TILLER
48
STEERING SYSTEMSDRUM CABLE
A DRUM IS ATTACHED TO A STEERING WHEEL. A CABLE
IS WOUND AROUND THE DRUM FED THROUGH A SERIES OF
PULLEYS FOR SUSPENSION, THEN TO EACH SIDE OF A
YOKE ATTACHED TO A RUDDER POST. TURNING THE
STEERING WHEEL ACUTATES THE STEERING.
49
DRUM CABLE SYSTEM
50
STEERING SYSTEMSSPROCKET CHAIN
IF YOU REPLACE THE DRUM IN THE DRUM CABLE WITH
A SPROCKET, THE TWO SYSTEMS WORK ALMOST
IDENTICALLY. THE SPROCKET AND CHAIN IS BUILT FOR
HEAVIER BOATS AND GREATER WORKLOADS.
51
RACK PINION
52
RACK PINION
THE STEERING CABLE IS ENCLOSED IN A CONDUIT . A
PINION GEAR IS ATTACHED TO THE END OF THE
STEERING SHAFT AND TO ONE END OF A RACK WHICH
ATTACHES TO THE OTHER END OF THE CABLE. THE CABLE
ALSO ATTACHES TO THE RUDDER POST OR THE OUTBOARD
ENGINE. TURNING THE WHEEL TRANSLATES INTO
TURNING THE RUDDER OR THE OUTBOARD ENGINE.
53
STEERING SYSTEMSGEAR SHAFT
NORMALLY NOT FOUND ON SMALL BOATS A series of
worm and bevel gears are attached to a steering
shaft which again, like the RACK PINION ,
translates the directional forces into steerage.
This system is for strong, powerful, heavy
applied loads such as those on large ocean going
vessels.
54
GEAR SHAFTLARGER VESSELS
55
HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS
SIMILAR TO THOSE FOUND ON AUTOMOBILES. HYDRAULIC
FLUID, UNDER PRESSURE, ACTUATES STEERING CABLE
CHANGES WHICH ARE TRANSLATED INTO TURNING MOTIONS
OF THE RUDDER OR OUTBOARD.
